JUST A QUICK NOTE


- early spring, Tiogue Pond, Coventry, RI

I'M GOING BACK to the hospital today. Joe was admitted to the E.R. yesterday and is going to have a surgery today to drain whatever is causing him this agonizing abdominal pain that is also radiating all the way to his back. The good news is that this isn't cancer-related. It's either he has Crohn's disease or appendicitis. I'd prefer to hear the latter. The poor guy has been through a lot lately but he's a trooper...always has been!

All of your warm and wonderful comments and prayers from previous posts were greatly appreciated.

Have a wonderful weekend, my sweet bloggy friends! It's another gorgeous day here in southern New England... quite chilly this morning but it should warm up later today.

Oh no! I hope everything with Joe goes well. I know we don't really know each other but if you want to talk or something just ask for the number!

I am on my knees for both Joe and you. May the Lord guide the hands of the surgeons as they alleviate the pain for Joe. PRaise the Lord it is not c-related. My faraway address makes all but prayers near-impossible -- good thing prayer is the most powerful thing I have to offer. Dear Father ...

XOXO ~~ : )
